Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process prompts your body to increase collagen and elastin production, the structural proteins that firm and smooth the skin, resulting in improved texture, elasticity, and a radiant complexion. Sessions typically involve mild numbing, minimal discomfort, and just a few days of redness before unveiling visibly healthier skin.
At Akari Medspa, each Newport Beach microneedling treatment is performed with meticulous care, and our full range of services is focused on ensuring visible, lasting improvement with minimal downtime.
To further enhance your results, Akari Medspa offers microneedling with PRP/PRF or Rejuran advanced regenerative boosters that nourish and revitalize the skin at a deeper level. These microneedling boosters are optional enhancements that can be added to your treatment to accelerate healing and amplify radiance:
These boosters, sometimes called add-ons, are integrated during treatment, allowing active ingredients to penetrate deeply through freshly created microchannels for optimal absorption and results.
Whether you select PRP, PRF, or Rejuran, the experts at our med spa in Newport Beach will tailor the experience to your skin’s needs, creating a restorative treatment that truly brings balance and radiance together.

Botox temporarily blocks nerve signals to the treated muscles, reducing contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles. This allows the skin to relax and smooth out naturally.
The procedure takes approximately 15–20 minutes, with no downtime, and results typically appear within three to five days, with their full effect typically reached at two weeks.
Patients choose Botox because it provides visible, natural results with minimal disruption to their daily lives. It’s ideal for those who want to look refreshed and youthful without surgery or drastic change.
Patients at Akari Medspa appreciate that every session is performed with care and precision, preserving full facial expression while smoothing unwanted lines. Botox has been safely used in medical aesthetics for over two decades, making it one of the most studied and trusted treatments available today.
Microneedling can address a broad spectrum of skin concerns, making it a versatile and restorative option for those seeking visible improvement without aggressive treatments.
Our Newport Beach microneedling patients often choose this treatment to improve:
Each session strengthens and smooths the skin’s structure while maintaining its natural vitality.
While Botox is the gold standard in neuromodulator treatments, there are also other FDA-approved options, such as Dysport, and Daxxify, that work in similar ways but vary in formulation and duration.
The most established and widely used neuromodulator, offering precise control and natural results that last around three to four months.
Known for a slightly faster onset and softer diffusion, making it suitable for larger treatment areas such as the forehead or the area between the eyebrows (glabella).
A newer innovation featuring peptide-based stabilization, designed to deliver longer-lasting results, often up to six months.
At Akari Medspa, all botox benefits are enhanced by our holistic approach to care, which supports long-term skin health alongside aesthetic results.
Here’s what to expect when receiving microneedling in Newport Beach at Akari Medspa:
Your journey begins with a detailed evaluation of your skin type, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals. Your provider will determine whether pure microneedling or a PRP/PRF/Rejuran booster is best suited for your needs.
A gentle cleanse and topical numbing cream ensure comfort throughout the procedure.
Using a sterile, medical-grade device, your provider creates microchannels across the skin to stimulate collagen and improve absorption of restorative nutrients.
If selected, your PRP, PRF, or Rejuran booster is infused during or after treatment, nourishing the skin from within and amplifying your results.
Ideal candidates for microneedling are individuals with generally healthy skin who are looking to address concerns like fine lines, enlarged pores, uneven texture or tone, mild acne scarring, stretch marks, or general loss of skin firmness, and many clients choose to pair these benefits with botox in Newport Beach for a more complete facial refresh. It’s safe for most skin types and tones, unlike some resurfacing treatments that can risk pigmentation issues.
However, it’s essential to avoid microneedling if you have active skin infections, inflammatory conditions (such as eczema or rosacea), or a history of keloid scarring. To determine if microneedling is right for you, we encourage you to schedule a personalized consultation with Isabel at Akari Medspa.
